Datang: Stop pretending, you are a peerless expert

Su Yu and the others rode horses, and Old Man Dong led the way.

Arrived at Qiancun.

This village has mountains and rivers, so it is reasonable to say that it is not bad.

The villagers I met along the way were also friendly.

It is unbelievable that such a horrific tragedy happened in such a place.

In front of Old Man Dong's door, many villagers gathered around and pointed.

Old Chen shouted: "The county magistrate is here!"

Everyone moved out of the way, and Su Yu dismounted.

The three old men Dong got off the horse.

The yamen servants guarded the outside and prevented others from entering.

Su Yu entered the room.

As soon as you step in, you can smell the smell of blood.

In addition, the weather is getting hotter now, and the smell of blood is getting stronger. Flies are flying around in the room and landing on the bed.

When I got closer, I saw blood stains on the bed.

A man, covered with a quilt, the quilt is torn.

Blood stained the pillows and sheets, and there was blood seeping under the bed.

Old man Dong and his wife burst into tears again, and Mrs. Xu also cried unceasingly.

Du Ruhui said: "This must be a vendetta."

"Yes, and this hatred is not small."

Su Yu nodded.

Judging from the wound, the neck was cut off at the first cut, through the flesh and blood, and even cut through the bed board below.

But the murderer didn't stop, and continued to slash a few times.

If it weren't for deep hatred, it would be more than that.

"This guy is very powerful, and he is a repeat offender."

Li Shimin said.

A knife cuts bones and flesh, penetrates the bed board, ordinary farmers can't do this kind of thing.

Wei Zheng asked old man Dong: "Didn't you hear the big commotion at night?"

Cutting through the bed, how could he not notice such a big movement.

Old man Dong cried: "My lord, it was windy and rainy last night, we didn't hear it."

It did rain last night, and it was windy.

Su Yu looked around. Except for the mess on the bed, the surrounding area was completely intact.

Weird.

The murderer is so cruel, and after the murder, he did dirty things, how could there be no traces around?

There was a chair in the middle of the room, and there were ropes and a piece of cloth on the floor.

This is something that binds Xu.

Su Yu asked old man Dong: "You said you came in by knocking on the door this morning?"

Old man Dong cried: "Yes, the doors and windows are locked in the morning."

"My son is doing business outside, and he said that you should be careful when you sleep at night, and you must lock the doors and windows."

Anyone who runs outside knows that doors and windows must be on guard.

Prevent thieves from murdering money in the middle of the night.

hiss.
Li Shimin gasped.

impossible.

How come and go without a trace?
"The doors and windows are always locked, how can I get in? How can I get out?"

"Could it be that he came here in hiding?"

Li Shimin said.

Wei Zheng checked the roof, but found no signs of movement.

The village watching the excitement outside said that it was the work of a demon.

The old man Dong cried: "My lord, did my son offend some god, and that's why he took his life?"

Farmers are prone to superstition, especially in ancient times.

Such a strange way of death is inevitably associated with ghosts and gods.

Su Yu shook his head and said: "There are no ghosts, it must be done by humans."

As a youth with four talents in modern society, a scientific worldview is the most basic.

Everything is materialistic, absolutely no gods.

"Then who did it?"

Old man Dong burst into tears.

Su Yu went outside and looked around the house carefully.

The villagers who watched the excitement trampled the road. Even if the murderer left traces last night, it was destroyed.

The people who watched the excitement murmured:

"This Dong Ming is really unlucky, he died as soon as he came back."

"I heard that I made a lot of money outside."

"If you want me to tell you, it's his daughter-in-law who is the bastard. This happened as soon as she came back."

Su Yu heard the last sentence, turned around and asked the villager, "You said Dong Ming died as soon as Mrs. Xu came back. What do you mean by that?"

The villagers were afraid of the officials and hurriedly knelt on the ground.

"My lord, I didn't say anything."

The villagers thought they had said something wrong.

"Get up and talk, don't just kneel down."

Su Yu said.

The villagers didn't dare to get up, and replied: "My lord, Mrs. Xu lived in her mother's house for three years, and only came back a few days ago."

Just came back.

In other words, the Xu family was not in the Dong family before?
Su Yu returned to the room, stared at Mrs. Xu, and asked, "When did you marry Dong Ming?"

Xu replied in horror: "Three years ago."

"When did you go back to your mother's house?"

Su Yu asked.

Mrs. Xu seemed frightened and could not speak.

Old man Dong said: "My lord, my son got married three years ago. Not long after we got married, my son went out to do business. My daughter-in-law went back to live with her natal family."

"My son came back a few days ago and brought her back."

Su Yu asked Mrs. Xu: "Since you married into the Dong family, you are a member of the Dong family."

"Why did you go back to your mother's house after your husband left, and it lasted three years?"

In ancient times, if you marry into your husband's family, you are a member of your husband's family.

There is no such thing as Xu.

Xu's hands were shaking, and he said, "I, my parents are not in good health and need to be taken care of."

Su Yu asked, "Is there no elder brother in your family?"

Old man Dong replied: "There are four elder brothers in her family, and she is the youngest."

It turned out to be the case.

Su Yu smiled coldly and asked, "Who is your adulterer in your natal family?"

With this question, the audience fell silent.

Xu's face was pale.

"My lord, I was wronged, and I was also tied up."

Xu cried.

Su Yu sneered and said, "Let me tell."

"Three years ago, you married Dong Ming. He went out to do business, and you returned to your natal family."

"In your natal family, you hooked up with an adulterer."

"A few days ago, Dong Ming came back from outside and went to pick you up from his mother's house."

"Your adulterer holds a grudge and wants to monopolize you, and you also want to hook up with the adulterer for a long time."

"So, last night, you opened the door for the adulterer and killed Dong Ming."

"Then, your adulterer tied you to a chair and faked the scene where you were raped."

After Su Yu finished speaking, Xu Shi trembled all over.

Li Shimin thought about it, and felt something was wrong.

"Brother, isn't it right?"

"She opened the door for the adulterer and killed Dong Ming. Then the adulterer tied her to a chair."

"How did the door lock after the adulterer left?"

Li Shimin asked.

Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui also nodded, and said, "The last point doesn't make sense."

Su Yu said: "Look at the door bolts here. People are tied to chairs and their hands are tied behind their backs."

"It looks like she can't lock the door."

"But in fact, she can move the chair slowly and put her head against the door bolt."

"Just push it, and the deadbolt will fall."

Wei Zheng checked the latch, and sure enough it was so.

There were signs of the movement of the chair legs on the floor.

Everyone was shocked.

"Xu, tell me, who is the adulterer?"

Su Yu said coldly.

"A monk from Peach Blossom Mountain."

Xu's mentality collapsed, and he still recruited.

Knowing the truth, Mr. and Mrs. Dong knelt down and cried loudly.

The villagers outside the door cursed the adulterer and adulterer.

"Take her back."

Su Yu said.

After going outside, Su Yu asked the villagers, "Where is the monk from Taohua Mountain?"

There was a look of horror on the faces of the villagers.

"My lord, that's an evil monk who can kill a tiger with his bare hands."

"There used to be a tiger on Peach Blossom Mountain. He killed the tiger and built a temple there."

Su Yu smiled and said, "Please show me the way, I will catch him myself."

The villagers were surprised, isn't the county magistrate afraid of death?
